RJ Young Makes Donations to Make-A-Wish America

BTA member RJ Young has announced its donation of more than $58,000 to Make-A-Wish America chapters in eight of its primary markets. The money was raised through employee donations and a 100% match from the company. RJ Young presented the check at a ceremony held last week at RJ Young's Tallahassee, Florida, office.

"The goal was to raise $20,000 during our giving campaign and we are proud to have nearly tripled that number," said AJ Baggott, COO, RJ Young. "Giving back to our local communities is one of our core values at RJ Young. We are grateful to our employees for their donations and look forward to granting even more wishes in the future."

RJ Young's donation will bring joy back into the lives of children with critical illnesses like 17-year-old Quan who needs a heart transplant. Quan's wish to meet Russell Wilson, the current Denver Broncos quarterback, will be just one of the more than seven wishes granted because of RJ Young's donation.

"This money not only makes wishes come true but is a powerful display of RJ Young's commitment to philanthropy and community engagement," said Beth Torres, president and CEO, Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee. "On behalf of all the chapters benefiting and the wish kids this money will support, I'm honored to say thank you to all our friends at RJ Young. They are true wish granters!"
